Is Nairaland Website Under Attack??? Sep2015 by xbernardx(op): 12:09pm On Sep 19, 2015
With my little knowledge of web design and ICT, i think this website is currently under attack.

For some days now, anytime i try to access the url http://nairaland.com, i get several error message of a redirect loop before it finally gets to load. I thought it was an issue with my network/ISP so i changed my IP address and it is still the same thing.

From the image attached, both on firefox and chrome it gives the same excuse of too many redirects, and a redirect loop, woodpress used to have same issues during some blogging days. So please can this be a hack or a word press issue

it loads on opera. multiple redirects are normal in site that implement such techniques but there's always a problem with forms or cookies and session variables.
I suggest that this may not be an attack, it could just be an update on the server that may be corrected if you clear your cookies. I mean clearing the cookies and cache of the affected browsers.

I switch between three networks.
For me I notice this mainly when using Airtel and Glo network. But it only happens with the front page.
However, after several attempts the page opens. Something is definitely wrong and it needs to be fixed.

So far I've not noticed it while using MTN.
